Lemon Tart

Instructions

• 1

  Assemble the mixer using the glass bowl and scraper beater. Add the flour, sugar and butter to the bowl. Slowly turn the mixer to FOLDING/KNEADING setting and mix until it resembles sand-like texture. Gradually add the ice water until the dough forms.

  Grease a 24cm round loose-based tart pan.

  Roll the dough between sheets of parchment paper until large enough to line the pan. Line the pan with the dough, gently easing it in without stretching. Trim the edges. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

  Place the tart pan on a baking sheet. Line the pan with parchment paper then fill with pie weights, dried beans or rice.
